The verdict
Lech Coaster takes it 5–1, and the 1 Piraten does win is the whole of its case.
Lech Coaster is a steel Bermuda Blitz coaster at Legendia, PL, built by Vekoma. Piraten is a steel Mega-Lite coaster at Djurs Sommerland, DK, built by Intamin.
Both are steel-track, so nothing here is the usual steel-versus-wood argument in disguise.
